[ILUG] OS to choose in the system BIOS...

Hi All,

On one of my wee systems, I noticed a BIOS option for either
1. DOS
2. Other.

What should one choose during installation of linux?

I normally leave this as DOS, but does anyone know if choosing "other" would
be more appropriate for linux. It seems that the block sizes are different
in this "other" config.

I have tried changing this to other POST installation, and I noticed that
the system does not boot - which is what I suspected would happen.

Would I have more space available on the disk subsystem or less or what?

Regards,
CW
